Definitely not my best work, but I’m sure Charlotte won’t mind. It will look so cute with her little purple skirt and tights! (I’ll come back with pictures I swear – she just loves clothes. You say to her, “Charlotte, who’s so pretty?” and she answers “ME!”)
The collar is still messed up – but the weird thing happening on the right side (in the picture) may be from ironing it – at least that’s what I’m telling myself.
I’m not sure I’m liking the whole raglan thing – it’s the seams that messed up the collar for sure. I’m not real postitive what I could’ve done better. But the arms and bottom are cute:
I’m feeling better. No snow (at all – thanks for getting my hopes up Weather people!) but I’m pretty much prepared for class.
Thanks for putting up with my craziness!
TOO cute! This is your first raglan right? Does Righetti rave about top down all in one piece raglans in the book you have? Her explanation of this technique in Knitting in Plain English really made a lot of sense to me. Maybe you should give it a go before giving up on raglans?
Its a great, simple sweater, and I’m sure Charlotte is going to love it.
Hey Cara! The Picot-Boo looks beautiful, and the little boo boo you mentioned will not be noticeable at all once it is worn by little Charlotte. I adore these colors, and the yarn looks so nice! Great work! 🙂
Have a very nice weekend!
Very, very cute!
Looks fantastic! I think the raglan looks adorable, and the collar is honestly find. The whole thing is just too cute. Gives me baby fever!
The raglans I’ve done have turned out great. Did you have to pick up stitches for the collar? It’s very cute and I’m sure she’ll love it!
It’s adorable. Just the thing for the prettiest girl!
I need that pattern. Emily NEEDS one of those sweaters! I’ve had yarn to make her a nice sweater for over a year now, just haven’t found the perfect pattern.
Craziness? What craziness? You are a breath of fresh air in the blogworld. 🙂
Love picot-boo. Very cute.
Oh, very cute! I can’t wait for pictures.
looks beautiful!
Boo boo, schmoo boo. It looks great!
Very cute!! The picot edge really makes it pop.
You kicked butt on this sweater! Your first raglan! They are a bit tricky but, all and all I think it’s easier than set in sleeves. Picking up stitches for a neck drives me crazy. I think it’s incredibly difficult to get it to lay properly. It’s a handmade sweater, I personally think that it should look that way!
